From 6dcc693bc57f198bd85a7881eb59a915366fae1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2016 11:46:40 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: warn when page is dirtied without buffers Warn when a page is dirtied without buffers (as that will likely lead to a crash in ext4_writepages()) or when it gets newly dirtied without the page being locked (as there is nothing that prevents buffers to get stripped just before calling set_page_dirty() under memory pressure).
